You probably mean the liberal Protestant churches which preach the same as the Pope did in this article.
Which of course would be straying from God's Word, Holy Scriptures. As in John 14:
6 Jesus said to him,I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
So I agree, any church whether it be Roman Catholic or Protestant/Evangelical would be teaching a false gospel by stating 'anyone' (even those who do not believe in God!)can come to the Father by any means even 'good works.' For such eliminates the Work of Christ.
Don't know why the Pope keeps banging this drum. It is as if he has never picked up a Bible.
Easy!
Just as in politics; you don't try to sway the Conservatives or the Liberals - their minds are made up.
It's the independents you go after.
Like wise, it's the Low Information Voters (in the religious sense) that he is attempting to snag.
